Would you label yourself as one of those lonely Christian single women? I met a single lonely woman today. She said she had no one with whom to share the burdens of her heart. If you feel like you too are a lonely single woman, you’re not alone.
Lonely Single Christian women Facts
According to a Duke University study, 25% of the US population feels like they have no one with whom to share their pains of life. The vast majority of these folks are…you guessed it: lonely single women and men. Why am I not surprised? Loneliness and singleness goes hand in hand, and affects many, especially among single women in the Christian community. Feeling alone in singleness can have a profound impact on one’s mental and spiritual well-being, but it doesn’t have to be a life sentence. For lonely Christian single women, there are several steps to overcome this emotional challenge and connect with others in meaningful ways.
1. Engaging in Community Activities and Church Groups
Lonely Christian single women should consider involving themselves in community activities or joining Christian church groups. By connecting with others in a community setting, women can form bonds, create lasting friendships, and discover shared interests. Participating in group Bible studies or volunteering for church events are fantastic opportunities to meet like-minded individuals.
2. Building a Strong Relationship with God
For a lonely Christian single woman, faith can be a powerful tool to combat loneliness. Building a strong relationship with God through prayer, reading the Bible, and attending church services will help foster a sense of purpose and connectedness. Through this relationship with God, one can find comfort, guidance, and a deeper sense of community.
3. Pursuing Hobbies and Personal Interests
Pursuing hobbies and personal interests is another vital step to combat loneliness for single Christian women. Whether it’s painting, reading, gardening, or engaging in outdoor activities, finding joy in personal interests can alleviate feelings of isolation. Sometimes, these hobbies can lead to meeting others with similar passions.
4. Online Christian Dating Platforms
If the goal is to find a romantic connection, there are specific online platforms dedicated to Christian dating. These platforms are designed to help Christian singles find potential partners who share their values and faith. It’s an excellent avenue to explore for those seeking companionship within the bounds of Christian beliefs.
5. Investing in Personal Growth and Self-Care
Self-care is essential for overall well-being, especially for those struggling with loneliness. Lonely Christian single women should focus on personal growth through self-reflection, setting goals, and taking time to enjoy life’s simple pleasures. Investing in oneself enhances self-esteem and creates a positive mindset, thus diminishing feelings of loneliness.
6. Professional Guidance from Christian Counselors
Professional counseling from a Christian perspective can be incredibly beneficial for those facing chronic loneliness. Christian counselors are equipped to provide guidance through faith-based principles, helping single Christian women find peace and connection.
7. Embracing and Practicing Christian Fellowship
Embracing the core values of Christian fellowship can create a robust support system. Surrounding oneself with fellow believers, supporting one another, and actively engaging in church activities promotes a sense of belonging and diminishes feelings of isolation.
8. Connecting with Family and Old Friends
Reconnecting with family and old friends can sometimes be overlooked. Sometimes, the connections we need are already part of our lives. Making an effort to reach out to those you love can foster existing relationships and reduce feelings of loneliness.
Single Lonely Woman Meets Jesus
Recently, I met recently a lonely woman who lost her boyfriend. Since she was not close to her family members or anyone else, she was keeping all of her heartache and loneliness to herself. Let’s face it, as Christian singles, we sometimes feel isolated and alone, with no one to really take care of us. Whether you are a single lonely woman or guy, remember God’s promises that we can go to Him at any time, about anything. If we only believe, we will find relief at the foot of His cross.
Bible Verse of Day:
Come unto me, all you that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

i am a 27 years old male, single, never had a girlfriend before, dun even know how to hold hands. 27 years of pain and torture from life, parents , people abuse, no one to share joy and pains of life. i wonder too if god really knows about our loneliness and pains we are going through?
if there is someone out there please pray for, I don;t know how long can I endure this lonely and broken heart. I endured for 27 years.

Christopher, I’ve never experienced abuse or torture from life or parents, but I can relate to your loneliness as a single. I understand your frustrations and broken heart. I am 28 years of age, and have never been married and I’m going through the same emotional tugs. Your story is touching and I will be praying for you for God to help you with your burdens and the pain of enduring and waiting. I don’t quite remember the exact scripture, but I know it’s in either I or II Peter, it says that we can cast all of our cares on God because He cares about us. He knows your pain and your loneliness because Jesus experienced everything a human being could ever experience. Remember Jesus was alive as a human being and felt what we feel today. i know it’s hard but hang in there and tell God about every feeling. You’d be surprised how you’ll feel afterward. You’ll feel a burden lifted. Plus don’t let the devil and your flesh influence how you feel. Go to God in prayer and the devil will flee from you. Have a nice day.

Christopher,
I was about to say your not alone but I guess you are. So am I. I am sure this is the main cause of most of my misery, being alone or not being with people that I bond with. Why? who knows, who cares, it doesn’t seem to change a thing knowing the reasons why. I am 47 and the last 20 years of my life seem to have vanished in a haze. Memories seem to form around events with others. I don’t have allot of those. I think we can both agree that the beautiful people and the wealthy people are mostly not alone. That is what drives people to want others. Become one of those as best you can and when something comes along hold on to it.
Good luck.

I am really upset and angry because here I am trusting in God praying my eyes out seeking God with all of my heart. In the word 24 hours beside working. Building up my husband helping him to grow our business. And the rat cheats on me going on craiglist looking for hookers. Can you imagine that I found over 20 girls whom he contacted I called all of them some numbers were disconnected. Most Thank God he could not get thru to most of them they were busy. So far I have found 2 only he slept with. Thanks to GOD I tested negative on every STD. It is only by GOD’s grace.
I don’t want HIM anymore I want to find someone who is spiritually built in GOD not a baby who is selfish always wanting there needs met and once there needs are not met they become angry and use the other party as an excuse to cheat. I am a good woman very much into GOD. My husband says he’s changed but he is a liar I don’t believe one word. I want a true man of GOD I feel I deserve this.

Hi,
Thanks for sharing such a interesting story and theme of life.
Every body needs family supports at every stage, but people tendency is very wrong, if they are getting success then forget their family. If they got cajole by anyone then remember family.
Old male can't get ahead
I know how hard it can be. I lost my mother years ago, and I have been swindled, cheated, and taken advantage of by people who just don’t care. As if that wasn’t enough, a promising girl wound up with her ex husband coming back..my how it seems to be that the timing is never right, then wound up losing job. I feel that if it is God’s time, things will work out. Sometimes we have to wind up like Job never getting ahead until finally there is a breakthru.

Here I am feeling sad for myself for being alone on Christmas day when there are so many other people who need encouraging right now. I think the hardest thing is to get out of our own head and reach out to others in need. I pray that each and every one of you is able to go to the Lord and cry your heart out if you must, tell him how you feel and just lay everything at his feet. I know he doesn’t expect us to be perfect or do it on our own. The bible says that the afflictions of the righteous are many, but the Lord delivers us from them all. That’s a promise people! When we get into our moments, we need to remember that it doesn’t last and that He will deliver you from them all. Don’t try to take revenge because he will handle that. God Bless you all.

I think lonely people get lonely. I’m also a Christian single but keep myself busy. I work full time, serve as a keyboardist at my church, go to gym every day, and have a few other odd hobbies like sharpening and restoring vintage straight razors.
I think sitting alone at home on the weekends reminds you of your loneliness. I say, keep in touch with your family and friends, and keep yourself active. I suggest you pick a hobby – learn to play a musical instrument, volunteer, learn to cook, etc. The more you think about how lonely you are, the more lonely you’ll get.

the focus of the church is couples and familes. They bring more workers to ministries,
more funds into the Church.
I like my church. i volunteer in the thrift store, serve in other ways. I have a good pastor.
Going to Church on Sunday I feel like an Outcast. I never really fit anyway. We have few single people in my Church. I wa in another Church for yrs, were Singles were ignored.
Jesus who the Church worships was single, yet singles are the least mistered to group in the Church. Others in the bible were single.
The Church is not for Older single people
